This week we have one small feature - end effectors can now cut ropes! We have also replaced grass with snow for the xmas event, which has been frequently requested, and was in such high demand that one player (briish) even managed to mod this into the game themselves! Very impressive.

This event is locked based on the date. Otherwise, this update is mostly bug fixes and improvements. Please see below for the full list of changes.

As we discussed last week, we have a big list of stuff to work through and will be releasing minor updates with fixes every 2 weeks as normal.
